<< otably, several meteors were recorded as SPORs in spite of perfect line-up
 with the PERs, and matches on speed, because they were too SHORT! I'll
 reexamine the magnitudes of some of these tomorrow - could I have been
 UNDERestimating fainter shower members all this time because I thought
 their path lengths too short?? What IS a "minimum" length for shower
 association?! >>

Lew...what is too short? they can all be short in relation to the
radiant..dot its the ones that are too long while being close to the radiant
that should be disqualified as perseids. I think you have it backwards?
